The "Exercises" worked just fine with me, no exception. But the problem occured when I took the quizzes. They were zeroed when questions were clearly right. There seems to be some issues with timing the deadline. It seemed to me that the due date would be the last time to take the quizzes but somehow they were accepted only until the day before. Anyway, just a misinterpretation of my part.

Yes I have also encountered that at times, especially if you copy & paste something into the cell instead of entering a solution entirely by hand. I'm not sure, but there may be other characters that get entered into the cell that are perhaps control characters that are not visible? Sometimes, I just ignored it knowing that I had the correct solution, sometimes, I cleared the cell and manually entered the content and that seemed to fix the problem.

Is anyone else having issues with the "Check My Solution" functionality in the exercise notebooks? Specifically, for Section 10 (images), "Check My Solution" is always telling me it is incorrect even though I have confirmed my solution is correct according to the exercise answers given at the end of the book. It's also spitting out an error.

Here's a screenshot: enter image description here

Hi Eric, my name is Ricardo, and I am working though the exercises on chapter 10. I am experiencing the same problems in the first two exercises as you. Did you find a solution? Thank you! Ricardo
POSTED BY: Ricardo Gorrin

Hello Ricardo and Erik,

Thank you for your feedback, we looked into the exercises noted and found that they were older version of the notebooks. You fix this by going to https://www.wolframcloud.com/browse#Home/Copied%20Files and deleting the exercise notebook, then refreshing the page. Please email us at wolfram-u@wolfram.com if you experience further issues.

When I downloaded the Course Materials at the End of the Last Day of the Course, there does not seem to be any of the Week 3 notebooks. Week 1 and Week 2 notebooks are there, but not Week 3. There seems to be no new files added since Apr 1 (hmmm, All Fools Day?).

Were any new files added more recent than Apr 1, and somehow I'm downloading the wrong cache of files?

Hi I'm in process of my review for the 5 Quiz Marathon. I think it is reasonable to ask whether each Quiz covers a certain portion of the Course? Said Info would make my prep more efficient, since we covered and entire Book in 2 weeks...

I would expect the 1st Quiz would cover perhaps the first few Days, while perhaps Quiz 5 might be expected to cover the entire course? or is there some other portioning that you would be willing to share?

I would happily accept the answer in the form of a Wolfram Language Association Assignment that would lead to a set {<| "Quiz 1" -> {1, 3}, "Quiz 2" -> {3,5}, ... or some such association of Quiz # -> {Day1, Day2}

Thanks In Advance

Hi Gerald,

This is probably the easiest way if there are no duplicate keys

Is anyone else having a problem going to the link for Quiz 1?. See attachment for the returned error. I get this error using both Chrome and Safari browsers. I get the same error when I try to open "An Elementary Introduction to the Wolfram Language".

Half way through week 1! How are we enjoying the class so far? What have you learned? What's been hard or surprising for you?

Here are some of the things we've created together in the last couple of days:enter image description here enter image description here enter image description here

Thank you to all who have been participating in the study group so far. As noted by Rory in today's session, Lesson 10 of the course is your homework for the evening:

https://www.wolfram.com/wolfram-u/an-elementary-introduction-to-the-wolfram-language/10-images.en.html

You will need to be logged in with your Wolfram ID to directly enter the course, otherwise you directed to sign in to continue.

I missed the start of this one, but I'd be interested in joining the next iteration.
